In the previous chapter:
Then, refusing to look at his two best friends on the floor, Sirius called out to Madam Pomfrey and dropped down from exhaustion.
Lily, Kim and Annie were standing in the middle of the Hospital Wing, horrified. James was getting better, he wasn't purple anymore but he was still unconscious, and he now had a wound on the side of his head. Sirius' leg was fixed and he was getting ready to leave. Remus was in the worst condition from the three. He had a deep cut on the side of his face and his arm was badly wounded. From what the girls had heard from Sirius, Remus had come to visit his friends last night and James had woken up, wild. James had hurt Remus and then turned to Sirius, who hit him in the head with the thing holding his leg up. Annie was terrified, she could barely speak but she kept muttering how lucky Remus and Sirius were to be alive. Kim was amazed by Sirius' quick muggle fighting thinking and Lily was just wishing them all a quick recovery. Taking one last glance at the unconscious James on the bed next to her, Lily turned around and walked out of the Hospital Wing.
"Lily, you're leaving?" asked Sirius. Lily nodded,
"Yeah, I have to finish the Transfiguration essay." She answered not looking at him. She heard him come towards her. Okay, breathe Lily, no hard feelings, you had every right to break up with him. He is not mad at you.
"I'll go with you. I want to get out of this place, I'm sick of it" he said cheerfully. Lily smiled and they walked off together. Annie stared after them and nudged Kim on the elbow,
"Wanna go?" she asked.
"Sure. Why not? Do you still like James, Ann?" Kim asked quietly. Annie wrinkled her nose.
"No, I don't think so. He likes Lily, and I want to get them together. What about you, any one?" she replied. Kim shook her head.
"Nah." And the two friends walked away.
(The next week)
Annie's POV (1st person)
The whole school seemed to know about the Marauders' accidents and injuries. And the whole school seemed to be talking about it. James had recovered from the curse and was now, if it's possible, even more popular. Girls followed him 24/7 and even some boys were walking with him to classes to ask him about the spell. And, to Lily's indignation, James loved it. He loved being the center of attention. Sirius was also surrounded by girls, though not many boys. He would let the girls cling onto his robes and carry his stuff around the school. Remus, on the other hand, was also being pestered by students, but he shrugged them off and told them to go follow the other Marauders. Today, Lily woke me up. I hate waking up early. If it were for me, I would stay in bed until noon, maybe even later. Lily pulled my covers off and shook me by the shoulders,
"Annie! Annie it's 8:30! We're already half an hour late! Oh God! We're going to be in BIG trouble!" she said nervously, fixing her hair up in a ponytail. I looked at my watch and groaned.
"Lily! It's Saturday!" I said loudly. Lily stopped short and blushed a deep crimson.
"Oh. Right. Sorry guys!" she muttered, blushing harder. Kim, from the bed on my right, started laughing. Lily started cracking up too and before I knew it, my two friends were rolling on the floor laughing loudly. I frowned and looked at them.
"I was GOING to fall back asleep, but someone seems to want to prevent that badly," I said. Geez, those girls don't have a sense of time do they? Who wakes up at 8:30 on a Saturday? Giving up on trying to sleep, I stood up sleepily and walked in the bathroom. I turned on the shower and undressed.
After a refreshingly warm shower, I put my hair up in a towel and walked out to pick out my clothes. Kim rushed into the bathroom as soon as I walked out. Lily was writing on her diary. I opened my closet and stared at my outfits.
"What should I wear, Lils? Preppy? Cute? Goth? Baggy? Warm? Showy?" I asked impatiently, rummaging through my shirts. Lily, without looking up said,
"I don't know, Annie. Pick whatever you want. But it's a Hogsmaede day!" (A/N: is that how you spell Hogsmaede? I was too lazy to look it up) That cheered me up. I love going to Hogsmaede! Finally, after hours of looking, I picked out a hot pink tank top and a white mini skirt. For shoes, I decided on a pair of platform boots to go with my shirt. I fixed my hair in a half ponytail and put on makeup. Kim came out of the bathroom, already dressed. She was wearing a cute, casual, light-blue dress that came down to her thighs, and her straight, chestnut hair was completely down. She looked pretty. Lily looked up and saw us ready, looking at her. She quickly stood up,
"I'll just change real fast." She said hurriedly. Kim nodded while I peeked at what she was going to wear. She picked out a lemon green sleeveless shirt and flared leg jeans. She didn't wear makeup, nor did Kim. When we were all ready, we walked into the common room. It was empty except for someone by the fire, reading. Who else would it be? Remus Lupin.
"Hey Remus!" Lily greeted him cheerfully. Lily's always cheerful. Kim is more reserved and quiet, while I am, well, spontaneous and outrageous. I don't want to boast but I think I'm beautiful. I love my golden, curly hair and my bright blue eyes. Also, my figure is quite fine, for my age. If you know what I mean. Remus looked up.
"Hello, girls" he said. "You all going to Hogsmaede?" I nodded,
"Yup! Aren't you?" Remus shook his head.
"Nah, James and Sirius went early in the morning and I didn't really feel well so I'm staying here studying." He replied. Wow, who would rather study than go to Hogsmaede? Seriously!
"Okay, well, I guess we'll see you at dinner!" said Kim. Remus waved goodbye as we went through the Fat Lady's portrait.
(James' POV)
"James! Come on! Zonkos is packed today!" called Sirius. I was standing outside the window of a store I'd never seen before, QTS: Quidditch: The Only Shop Where you can feel on a Broom, and was staring at the new Nimbus 1000. I had the old Shooting Star and really wanted a new one. Sirius was already going into Zonkos, as always.
"Be right there, Sirius. I just wanna take a look in here." I shouted over my shoulder, entering the shop. As soon as I stepped inside, I knew I should've come in here before. I was floating in the middle of the air, the wind rushing by my face. There were broom stacked on my right, floating as well. In short, everything was floating. Other students were flying on the brooms below me. It seemed like an eternal space of Quidditch. I need to tell Sirius about this, he'll love it! I ran out of the store and towards Zonkos, which was a few blocks away. Suddenly, I felt myself bump into something. Or someone. Looking up, I saw Lily. My hand instantly went through my hair. She looked beautiful. She was wearing simple clothes but they made her look amazing. Not that she didn't look amazing in any other clothes, but today, she made my stomach flutter. Wow, how pathetic. Boys' stomachs aren't supposed to flutter! Its girls who do that. Okay, well, say something!
"Sorry, Lily. My bad. Are you okay?" I apologized quickly. She laughed, amused, as did Kim and Annie, who were with her.
"Yeah, don't worry. So where were you going in such a hurry?" she asked. I smiled shyly.
"Oh, I was just going to tell Sirius about this Quidditch store I found. What are you girls doing?" I said. Annie's eyes lit up.
"Oh! You mean QTS. I LOVE that store! I was just trying to convince these two (she pointed at Lily and Kim) to go in there but they insisted on going to the pet store over there" she explained, shooting her friends an evil look. That girl can be creepy. I smiled and said,
"So…would you like to join us?" The girls exchanged looks.
"Well, no thank you. We were just going to the pet store so unless you want to go with us…" Kim said. Aww. I wanted to hang out with Lily but, oh well. Next time.
"Uh, no thanks. I'll just go with Sirius; he's probably waiting for me." I said. And with that, I waved the girls goodbye and left.
A/N: See? I'm still with Writer's block. Please give me some ideas!!!! Thank You:D
